Getting ready for travel with Hallie.....

Well, Hallie and I are getting ready for our NY trip. It is much more complicated getting out of town with a baby! I have actually traveled with Hallie a few times but I have had Reed there to help me! So, in the midst of packing up me and Hallie and all of her bottles, food, spoons, diapers, burp cloths and 5,000 changes of clothes (because she will inevitably explode through whatever I have her in at the airport tomorrow - ask Reed about how she loves to pee on me in the airport too), I almost forgot to arrange to take Zeke to the kennel! I just called and made him a reservation and packed up his food for the weekend. Poor dog he takes a back seat now that we have the baby. Luckily, he's such a good dog! Anyhow, I think we are set ...I just have to get there now........

Hallie - 5 months

Here's Hallie getting ready to go with me for a jog. It was really cold a couple of weeks ago and this is a "star" bunting that she got from her GranB (Reed's mom) for Christmas to keep her warm. She looked so cozy I had to take her picture. Hallie continues to grow so fast and has found her voice and loves to scream in delight!

Hallie and I will travel to NY this weekend to meet up with my family. Little Martin lives in NY now. Mikey is flying in for the night from Vanderbilt. Dad, mom, Ashley and Lawson will fly in as well. We are traveling without Reed because he is out west for work/pleasure (skiing in Park City). Ashley and mom are in NY for market and the rest of us are just tagging along for a show and some good eats! I will post more when we return!

Santa Baby!

I tried to take some photos of Hallie in her Santa hat over Christmas and thought this one turned out cute!

By the way, we have our webcam set up so that we can do live video conferences! If any of our friends out there have webcams let us know so we can link up!

Go Jacksonville Jaguars!!

Hallie received a Jaguar "Roar" cheerleading outfit from her DiDi (my mom) and she cheered them on to victory this past Sunday with her Daddy!

Mom wanted to take a family photo over Christmas so here we all are. It took some patience but Mom's friend Linda was able to get a good shot! Back row- Michael, Mom, Reed, James, Martin
Next row- Dad and Thomas
Front row- Me and Hallie, Ashley and Lawson and my grandmother, Grammi.
We had a nice time in Jacksonville visting my family! The boys got to hunt and the ladies shopped! Hallie loved playing with her cousins too!
